What you’ll be measuring

Are you able to delay gratification for greater rewards in the future, or do you often give in to immediate pleasures? How well do you manage your impulses and desires? This assessment delves into your ability to resist temptations, stay focused on tasks, and make decisions that align with your long-term goals.

After the test — here’s what happens

Your score becomes the opening line of a clinical conversation, not an endpoint.

  1. Consultation

    A care coordinator calls (or WhatsApps, your choice). You tell us what’s going on — no forms, no pressure.

  2. Expert Psychiatrist

    We book you with a psychiatrist who is a leading authority in this condition — not a generalist.

  3. Assessment

    If the psychiatrist recommends it, a senior clinical psychologist runs in-depth assessments before we shape the plan.

  4. Therapy + Medicine

    Structured therapy with a senior clinical psychologist when indicated, plus medication adherence support — both coordinated by the same team.

  5. Ongoing care

    Medication reviews, therapy adjustments, and continuity of care — the same team stays with you as things evolve.
